Athletistic/Hockey. The head coach of the Russian team under 25, Vladimir Filatov, after beating Sochi (6-1) at the Sochi Hockey Open, praised the play of striker Dmitry Buchelnikov.

“Buchelnikov? He played very well. I’m happy with his progress.

It would be great if he also develops and has no injuries. He just started playing after a serious injury, which he suffered during the MHL playoffs. I would be very happy if he had the chance to play for the first team. He’s a great hockey player and a good person,” Filatov told Sport-Express.
